[QUOTE="HermesSysOp, post: 1651767, member: 346494"] Are you saying that until this morning, you had never heard of the ">" redirect command either? If so, interesting, and right on time to help me out. You know, I had already given up trying to get the export to work properly. So what I did was export the Terminal window itself, which of course was simply black text on a white background. So there I was slowly adding all of the ANSI codes, based on what I was seeing in the Terminal. That is when you came to the rescue and saved me some time. Oh yes. Hermes II is close to 30 years old, but it will still run in Classic mode if you use SheepShaver or Basilisk II. That is how I run both my BBS and my old Hotline server. Please do stop by the BBS when you feel so led. Today was in fact a rather interesting day in another way as well. As few BBSers -- and particularly Mac BBSers -- that remain, today for the first time ever, we actually had three of us in a three-way chat. That has never happened before in all the years that I ran my BBS, since 1994. So maybe there is hope yet for Macintosh-based BBSing. One other final interesting development: There are several OS X BBS packages in the works. I have been to the developer boards of both of them during the past few days, but neither is ready for prime time yet, and they have both been in development for a number of years. Until they are ready for prime time, with all normal BBS features and then some, I guess I will continue with Hermes II, despite how archaic it is in some ways. [/QUOTE]
